eat human? Why do temples still eat people?

Mrs. Qiao was also stunned when she heard this.

But before she could think about it, Mrs. Chen reminded her: "Mother, how could you forget that the Queen Mother's birthday is in these days. Even if she wants to pray for blessings and fulfill her wishes, she has to wait until the birthday banquet is over."

"Yes, look at my memory, I almost forgot about it when I was so happy."

"Then let's wait until after the Queen Mother's birthday party and Shu'er's body is completely healed. Let's talk about it then."

As Mrs. Qiao was talking, she heard Qiao Wanshu "wailing" again.

[Isn’t it? So soon, the old emperor will start digging holes? 】

Everyone immediately pricked up their ears.

No one noticed that there was also a person outside the door, who took back the steps he was about to take.

General Chen just came back from the palace and happened to hear Qiao Wanshu's voice.

He was afraid that his rash appearance would interrupt her, so he held his breath and stood outside the door to listen.

Qiao Wanshu didn't realize that she had become the focus of everyone's attention again, and she recalled it in her heart.

[The Emperor is waiting to dig a hole for the Qiao family at the Queen Mother’s birthday banquet. 】

[When the time comes, the third brother will be given a marriage to Princess Wan Ning, who is an arrogant and domineering master who makes the house restless when he is at home. After leaving the cabinet, he became the emperor's spy, causing the Qiao family to get into trouble easily. 】

[It is pity that my third brother was so charming and had a good reputation all his life, but he could not escape from her clutches until his death. 】

[Not to mention that my grandfather also took the opportunity to seize military power by the emperor. The Qiao family...these turmoils are coming one after another. It's like a big tree attracts wind. 】

Everyone had different thoughts when they heard these words.

Especially Qiao Jinghan, her eyes widened and she stared at Qiao Wanshu in disbelief.

How could he have such a tragic fate?

The bad reputation of Princess Wan Ning was known to everyone in the capital.

Want him to marry that female devil?

Then he would rather die!

Qiao Zhongtian pondered in his heart: Since he already knows that the emperor is going to give the third child a marriage, he must make preparations in advance.

Although the Queen Mother's birthday was in two days and the time was somewhat rushed, there were still ways to avoid it.

General Chen felt a chill in his heart when he heard that the emperor actually wanted to take back his military power.

I think that he has spent his whole life serving the country and the people, guarding the border for decades, and I don’t know how much family happiness he has missed.

In the end, what he got in exchange was the fear of the master with great achievements, and the tragic ending of the bird being wiped out and the bow hidden.

He could even imagine how the emperor would round up and flatten the Chen family after losing military power.

"General, won't you come in?"

A question came from behind.

She was the maid who came to deliver medicine. She saw General Chen standing at the door and hesitated, so she spoke.

"Is this medicine for Shu'er? Give it to me."

Old General Chen took the medicine bowl from her hand and walked in.

"Madam, I heard that Shu'er is fine, so I came here to take a look."

He handed the medicine bowl over: "This is from your maid, I will take it over by the way."

Qiao Wanshu saw her grandfather sweating on his forehead and faintly panting, and knew that he was acting like this in a hurry.

Thinking that he is old and has to worry about himself, I feel heartbroken at the moment.

"Old General, you've been working hard, but Shu'er is seriously ill, so I have to ask you to go to the palace to get medicine for typhoid fever."

Mrs. Qiao's words reminded Qiao Wanshu.

【Typhoid fever? correct! The emperor used the excuse that his grandfather had neglected the management of the troops, which caused many soldiers to be infected with typhoid fever and the number of soldiers was seriously reduced! 】

[For this reason, my grandfather’s military power was taken away! 】

[But who would have thought that the dog emperor was cruel and ruthless. He really couldn't find fault with his grandfather, so he ordered the spies placed in the army to poison the soldiers' water sources! 】

Chen moved his fingers and subconsciously wanted to cover his lips and exclaim.

Fortunately, she held back in time and just reached out to move Qiao Wanshu's forehead hair and tested the temperature of her forehead.

Only then could she cover up her gaffe just now.

And Old General Chen's face became very ugly.

He knew that the epidemic that swept through the army was very strange.

But never would he have imagined that the man behind the scenes would actually be the emperor!

It was he and the soldiers who risked their lives to protect him loyally!

Just to weaken the Chen family and seize the military power from him, they would risk the lives and wealth of hundreds of soldiers!

And behind them are the joys, sorrows and expectations of thousands of families.

At this moment, General Chen's heart was completely cold.

Although he was strict in governing the army, he loved his soldiers as much as his sons.

We are never sloppy when it comes to food, drinking water, and daily life.

So when an epidemic that looked like typhoid but was slightly different suddenly appeared in the army, he began to wonder what went wrong.

It turned out that it was not an infectious disease, but someone poisoned it!

Qiao Wanshu felt curious when she saw her parents and others suddenly fell silent.

【What's wrong? Why is everyone silent? 】

Mrs. Chen came to her senses and handed Qiao Wanshu to Grandma Gu: "Mammy, please hold Shu'er for a while, and I'll give her medicine."

[Feed medicine? 】

Qiao Wanshu was startled and struggled with her hands and feet.

[Didn’t I drink medicine just now? What kind of medicine is this? I won’t drink it, I’ll be miserable! 】

Mrs. Chen could only coax softly: "Shu'er, good boy, your body and bones are too weak now. The powerful medicinal properties just now, even though they have been diluted, are not something your body and bones can bear."

"This medicine strengthens the body and strengthens the vitality. Only by drinking it can the medicine's properties be neutralized without leaving any sequelae."

She completely regarded Qiao Wanshu as an adult, so she explained so seriously.

And she also believed that Shu'er completely understood these words.

Qiao Wanshu's struggle was indeed reduced.

Although there was still a look of reluctance on his face, even though his face was wrinkled like a bitter gourd, he still had the courage to drink the soup.

"Look, Shu'er is so good. As long as you reason with her properly, she will understand everything."

Chen couldn't help but praise him.

Everyone also joined in.

Especially Qiao Jinghan, he came directly to Qiao Wanshu and gently poked her chubby face with his fingertips.

"Shu'er, third brother, I don't ask for anything else, I just want you to be free from illness and disaster in the future."

"You know, we were almost scared to death just now!"

Qiao Wanshu didn't care to complain about the lack of seriousness of Third Brother's subordinates.

He pursed his lips and complained with a frown: "Wow, this medicine is too bitter!" 】

[Are all Chinese medicines this bitter when brewed? 】

[Then can you put some honey for me, or just put a piece of caramel in my mouth to sweeten my mouth! 】

Everyone looked at her wrinkled little face, pitiful and funny at the same time, and everyone couldn't help but smile.

Then Qiao Wanshu let out a long sigh.

[You said, the Hidden Mist Grass is a kind of poison after all, right? 】

[If there is poison, there will be an antidote, right? 】

[Among the serious detoxification drugs, which one is not bitter? Why is the Misty Hidden Grass an exception? The antidote is beyond imagination! 】

[Who knew that the antidote to that poison was so simple that it was even one of the most common plants! 】
